CVE-2026-49258 Details
Description
Nebula Mesh is a self-hosted control plane for the Slack Nebula mesh VPN. In versions 0.3.5 and below, the web UI (/ui/*) does not apply the per-operator CA scoping employed by the JSON API. This was partially addressed by GHSA-598g-h2vc-h5vg, but the changes were not implemented in the web read/mutation surface. Any authenticated non-admin operator (for example, one created via self-registration or OIDC) can access resources belonging to other operators. The host create/edit/mobile-bundle/network-create paths and all CA-management routes were already correctly scoped. A malicious operator could block or delete any other operator's host, or read any operator's hosts and networks. This issue has been fixed in version 0.3.6.
A vulnerability in Nebula Mesh versions through 0.3.4 allows authenticated non-admin operators to access resources belonging to other operators via the web UI. This issue arises because the UI does not enforce the per-operator CA scoping that the JSON API applies. As a result, a non-admin operator can read, block, or delete hosts belonging to other operators. While the vulnerability has been fixed in version 0.3.6, it previously exposed sensitive information and management capabilities across operator boundaries.
Users can upgrade to Nebula Mesh version 0.3.6 or later to address this vulnerability.
